Mo Lian extended his hand, but before he could touch the giant sack over the childs shoulder, he came across her cold glare.

Instinctively reacting, the child vigilantly lifted the bundle and jumped backward, her eyes brimming with accusation, as though they were about to rob her a second time.

Yu Xiu:

Cough, cough, cough. Mo Lian helplessly cleared his throat. Xiao Qiaoqiao, dont worry, this all belongs to you. We wont take a single cent from you!

Humph! A certain child made a disdainful sound and turned around, wanting to leave.

However, Mo Lian swiftly blocked her and seized the chance to pick up her tiny body, as well as that gigantic sack. A flash of his figure and he had leaped onto a tree.

At the same time, clamor engulfed the entire Wu Estate. Many villagers were carrying buckets and basins, forming groups to put out the fire of their own accord.

Qiaoqiao, what enmities and grievances do you have with the mistress of this household? A slender fingertip gently poked the tip of the girls delicate nose. Mo Lians lips lightly turned up, his mood ineffably brightening as he looked at her turmoiled expression.

Humph. A certain child pridefully turned her head sideways and peered at the people coming and going in front of the houses entrance, her face revealing the disgruntlement that she felt.

So many people were helping that Wu woman extinguish the fire, so how could it incinerate the place? The most it would do was burn down two wings of the house, and it was far from her desire to burn down half of the Wu Estate. How boring!

If you wont speak, then I will guess! See, the first time I saw you, you wanted to strangle her in the rancid sewer!

That wasnt a rancid sewer! Qiao Mu suddenly turned her head, her large, twinkling eyes looking at the youth in front of her with displeasure.

Hows that a rancid sewer! Its a tiny quagmire at most! He doesnt even know to speak properly! How obnoxious, humph!

Mo Lian:the rancid sewer wasnt the main point, alright? The main point was that you were killing someone

This is the second time, and this time, you want to burn them alive! I wont believe you even if you say you dont have any enmities.

Since you loathe this person so much. How about I help you kill her? Dont worry, if its in my hands, I can guarantee that she wont live past tonight.

Yu Xiu silently cried.Your Highness, your approach isnt right! The child before them is extremely vicious already, so how could Your Highness continue to lead her crooked? Doesnt Your Highness conscience hurt from doing this?

Qiao Mus tiny face was taut and solemn. I dont need it!

Yu Xiu touched his heart.Thats good, thats good. The child was still very pure and kindhearted.

However, a certain childs subsequent words immediately shattered his outlook on life.

Letting her die like thatwouldnt it be too easy for her! Qiao Mu icily stated before glancing at the smiling Mo Lian. Do you have a method that will allow her to remain alive but to live in hell from now on?

Yu Xius eyes slightly widened.

I do. Mo Lian briskly nodded and patted the childs head. Leave it to me.

Qiao Mu was silent for a while before her tiny voice emerged in the night again. Can you help me buy a crossbow that can shoot arrows continuously?

I can.

I would prefer if the firing speed is fast! I dont want the type of trash that dawdles half a day but cant even shoot two arrows!

Not a problem!

Can you buy clothes that my whole family can wear for 20 years? the child asked after pondering for a bit.

I can.

Can you help me order 1000 iron arrows? She did not feel like she was wanting a kilometer after being given a millimeter at all!

Not a problem.

Give it to me within 10 days?

Alright!

Qiao Mu nodded in satisfaction and threw the gigantic sack of gold from her shoulders into Mo Lians arms. You can use what remains to buy something good to eat.

Yu Xiu:Our Highness isnt a foodie, please and thank you!

Mo Lian laughed heartily as he walked away with the child in his arms. He suddenly realized that ever since he met this interesting little guy, joy seemed to be a more frequent visitor in his life, and a tinge of energy had injected itself into his life.

Yu Xiu:Your Highness, wont you ask why in the world does this girl want clothes that her whole family can wear for the next 20 years?

So, in other words, this bizarre girl committed murder, arson, and burglary tonight in order to dig up enough gold to purchase the next 20 years of clothes for her family?

Hoho
